Any of Azure DevOps's 5 triggers in the catalog, including Completed Build, New Work Item, New Work Item Comment and Updated Work Item. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Newsflash when something happens in Azure DevOps? Any of Newsflash's 6 actions, including Find Articles, Find Events, Get Account Info and Get Corpus Stats. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can it also run from Newsflash to Azure DevOps? Yes. When something happens in Newsflash, your agent can act in Azure DevOps too. This page covers both directions: Newsflash's triggers and Azure DevOps's actions are listed here as well. ### ### Do I have to build a connector for Azure DevOps or Newsflash? No. Both are in the catalog with their triggers and actions. You describe the automation; your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. ### ### Can my AI client use Azure DevOps and Newsflash without building an automation? Yes. With your AI client connected to APIANT, ask it to do something in either app once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running. One connection covers both. ### ### What happens when something fails? Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Is there a free plan? Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
